Answer:

relationship between two stereoisomers having molecules that are mirror images of each other

enantiomers have identical chemical and physical properties in an achiral environment but form different products when reacted with other chiral molecules and exhibit optical activity

ex: eszopiclone (Lunesta), which is just a single enantiomer of an older racemic drug called zopiclone. One enantiomer is responsible for all the desired effects, while the other enantiomer seems to be inactive, so the dose of eszopiclone is half that of zopiclone (see below)

Explanation:

hope it helps
